Hello Lovelies! I apologize for the lateness with this post. I swear...this year has just been the worst year for almost everyone I know, and it will not let up. Many of you have read my daughter's story, and I am incredibly saddened to report that the bully that tormented Kalli for over 2 years has decided that one year of being good was enough, and has started in again - of course with a friend. Kalli's school is much better than the school she was in when this happened with this girl last time, however the mere fact that the school board was involved, the police were involved, and many, many people were disciplined over this girl and her constant torture and this girl has the guts to start in again just pisses me off to no end. Scuse my french. I am so over this girl and the school has one change, otherwise I use the phone numbers that I have stashed away (Direct numbers to the Superintendent and head of school police) as well as APD and my lawyer. With my daughter in treatment for sever depression and PTSD and now self-harming, I am not messing around. I'm really not above slapping a 12 year old bully with a restraining order.
Needless to say, I'm dealing with this situation as well as trying to keep my daughter stable and okay, and posting fell to the wayside. I know that all of you understand that my kids come before anything else on earth, but I always feel the need to explain, as well as share since this is the most supportive community that I have ever been blessed to be a part of.
I'll be honest, Polish isn't just a passion for me...It's like Zen. When I sit down to polish my nails, it's like my stress melts away and I'm able to relax and refocus. Which is why I try to keep on posting even though I have a ton of stress and turmoil. Having said that, let's take a look at some flippin' crazy awesome polish!!
Today I have a 3rd killer polish from the new Diagon Alley Collection from Polish TBH. This one is a glitter topper called Pumpkin Pasties, and is very special since it was actually created by Christian's son! How awesome is that? Proceeds from Pumpkin Pasties will go directly to his piggy bank, which is even cooler. I'm fairly certain this kid is going to be rollin' in dough, since this polish is just too awesome for words.
Pumpkin Pasties is a mix of Hot Orange Hexes, 2 different shades of pinks in different sizes, black and white bars, Gold hexes, black and white hexes, and a gold & orange metallic glitter blend in a clear base. Phew! That's a mouthful! But it makes for one really Epic glitter topper.
I chose to layer 1 coat of this beauty over Essie tart Deco, which created a manicure that I do not want to take off. Ever. And peaches/oranges are not my colors!
Oh how this polish makes my knees weak!!! Look at that sparkle, those colors....this is once seriously kick-ass polish. I think Christian's son should make some more for us! Dontcha think?
How about a macro shot??
*Falls over* Can you see those little orange shreds in there??? Yeah, those make me do the happy dance!
Pumpkin Pasties formula is the usual Polish TBH perfection. Even though this baby is packed with glitter, there's no need to dab it on, and no chunks of glitter on the brush to worry about. Application is amazingly easy with the glitter dispersing perfectly on the nail and laying nice and flat. There's also an even mix of the different glitters on the brush, so no need to hand place any of the larger pieces or add extra to certain spots. Pumpkin Pasties dries very smooth for a glitter bomb, and I needed only 1 coat of my usual top coat for a smooth finish. Wear is excellent - in fact I've been wearing this for just over 2 days and have not one sign of wear and not one single lifting glitter.
Pumpkin Pasties is pure awesomesauce, folks. It's been awhile since I have been this in love with a glitter topper (and we all now how much I love glitter toppers, right?), and I'm already planning on ordering a backup bottle. If you haven't pre-ordered this, mark your calendars and grab a bottle first thing on Saturday morning. You need this. Period.
You can find the Diagon Alley Collection and all of the Polish TBH pretties at Polish TBH on Big Cartel. Full size polishes range from $10-$12 depending on finish, and the Diagon Alley Collection is also available in a full set for $55 full size or $22 mini. The Diagon Alley pre-order is unfortunately finished, but the collection will go on sale this Saturday, 8/31. Also making a triumphant return is one of my fave polishes of all time, Tiny Dancer! I guarantee that not only with Diagon Alley sell out, but Tiny Dance will as well, so I highly recommend some serious store stalking on Saturday. You can also follow Polish TBH on Facebook and Instagram for updates, swatches, and the release time on Saturday.
What do you lovelies think of Pumpkin Pasties? Is this not the ultimate Fall glitter?? *swoons*
I'll be back tomorrow (I can't guarantee what time, but I'll make it!) with more from the Diagon Alley Collection! I also have some awesome polish from Gothic Gala, Squishy Face Polish, Cinema Swatch Lacquers, Euphoria Lacquers and Mint Polish lined up for next week.
Since Monday is my birthday, I'm probably taking the day off, but I'll share my bday Mani on Tuesday. I also have a really Epic giveaway in the works that should go live next week, so be sure to keep an eye out!
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!
